Chapter 1443 Cleared [The Arena of Life and Death]
Chapter 1443 Cleared [The Arena of Life and Death]
At this point, there's no point in trying to hold on any longer; it would only bring shame upon ourselves.
No, even if I wanted to force myself to, I simply couldn't.
We can't beat Boss Chen in terms of strength, and we can't win over Boss Chen in terms of public support...
If he continued to hold on, the King of Gladiators had no doubt that his former subordinates would rush up and beat him up for Chen Mu.
Because in those people's eyes, he was cunning and deliberately provoked Boss Chen, causing Boss Chen to keep beating him...
Thinking of this, the King of Gladiators couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh.
Hey, you weirdo, can you please let me off this time?
Looking back on its life, the King of Gladiators tragically discovered that none of the attacks it had suffered in its entire life had been as severe as the attacks Chen Mu had just made against it in that short moment!
Chen Mu, why are you being so cruel... targeting me?!
The reason is actually quite simple: throughout his life, Mr. Chen has hated two types of people the most:
One type is the person who tries to show off in front of Boss Chen;
Another type is those who prevent Boss Chen from showing off.
Coincidentally, the King of Gladiators possesses both of these qualities.
It was only natural that Boss Chen would give them extra treatment.
Chen Mu approached it and wanted to pat it on the shoulder.
As a bamboo pole, it has no shoulder to pat.
Chen Mu comforted him, "Xiao Dou, don't think too much about it. Although you lost the arena, on the bright side, you've become my employee. You should feel gratified."
The administrator standing nearby echoed, "This is a good thing."
Chen Mu said, "How about this, I'll offer 100 million to buy your arena, as well as the wages you'll receive for working for me."
"You and my men, from now on, go back to Wangjiang and live your lives as watchmen."
Now, even the King of Gladiators has been humiliated and has lost the will to resist.
Then it thought about it again, and realized that having a hundred million ghost money didn't seem like such a bad thing after all.
After calming down, the King of Gladiators asked weakly, "Chen Mu... Boss, where is this 'Watching Over the River' you mentioned?"
Chen Mu said, "This bizarre apocalypse is the surface world. Didn't you come from there? Now you've returned to your homeland."
However, upon hearing the terms "creepy apocalypse" and "the ground," the Gladiator King's expression showed a barely perceptible moment of surprise.
In the King of Gladiators' needle-like eyes, a complex look of fear, evasion, and dread was revealed.
However, the King of Gladiators was very good at hiding his identity.
That look only lasted for less than a second before it was suppressed by the King of Gladiators.
However, even if it wasn't suppressed, its pinpoint-sized eyes would be completely invisible to others.
The King of Gladiators believed that he had excellent, flawless, control over his emotions.
It even glanced at Chen Mu, only to find that Chen Mu was still chatting and laughing, completely oblivious to its presence.
The King of Gladiators breathed a slight sigh of relief.
However, the King of Gladiators underestimated Chen Mu's insight.
Even if it didn't have eyes, let alone eyes the size of pinheads, Chen Mu could still sense the Gladiator King's emotional fluctuations from subtle movements, atmosphere, and the timing of his responses.
Chen Mu is now a high-level Ghost Lord! He also has the Lucky Lock bonus.
Chen Mu had already sensed the inexplicable attitude of the Gladiator King towards the bizarre apocalypse.
Chen Mu was very interested because it might contain the secrets of the origin of the strange scenes in space.
The King of Gladiators didn't say anything, and Chen Mu didn't press for details, to avoid alerting the enemy.
The thousands of strange employees had already scattered back to their dormitories and started busying themselves with packing their luggage, waiting to leave for distant lands with Boss Chen.
The King of Gladiators then asked, "So when are we leaving?"
"Now, the sooner the better," Chen Mu said.
He really didn't want to delay, after all, he came to space mainly for the last of the top ten bizarre scenes.
There lies the last piece, a fragment of hell!
Collect all the fragments of Hell, and Hell will be... in your own hands!
I need to finish things at the arena quickly so I can get on with my important business.
Contrary to his usual behavior, the King of Gladiators did not oppose Chen Mu anymore, but obediently nodded, "Then I'll go pack my luggage too."
After saying this, the King of Gladiators turned around and walked towards its dormitory.
Chen Mu did not stop him, but he looked at the King of Gladiators' back thoughtfully.
After watching the King of Gladiators leave, Chen Mu went to the stands to take charge of the situation.
The strange creatures who had packed their belongings gathered around the arena, waiting for Chen Mu's order.
It must be said that these bizarre movements are incredibly fast.
Perhaps they were also afraid of being too slow and being left behind by Boss Chen, in which case they would have nowhere to turn to cry.
In less than five minutes, the thousands of strange employees had basically packed their bags.
Just as everyone was preparing to set off, a gasp suddenly erupted from the other side of the arena:
"Boss Chen! Something's wrong! The King of Gladiators is trying to escape!"
The one who shouted those words was the administrator.
It held a high position in the arena, and therefore its quarters were located relatively close to those of the King of Gladiators.
Just now, it went back to pack its things, and as soon as it came out, it sensed a powerful and eerie aura in the sky, rapidly moving away.
It looked up at the sky and saw the gladiator king's figure disappearing into the distance.
It called out twice, but the King of Gladiators ignored it and instead ran faster and faster.
The cautious administrator instantly realized that the King of Gladiators wanted to escape.
The administrator abandoned his luggage and rushed over to tell Chen Mu.
Upon hearing this news, the eerie employees around the arena were all greatly surprised.
They never expected that their former boss would turn around and run away.
Chen Mu, however, was not too surprised and simply nodded quietly.
"Thank you for letting me know, I understand," Chen Mu said.
Chen Mu had already noticed the Gladiator King's little scheme and was sure he had a countermeasure!
While the King of Gladiators was packing his belongings at his residence, Chen Mu had already split off his innate demonic energy to secretly monitor him.
Presumably, by this time, the natal aura clone has already begun to act!
At this moment, at the edge of the eerie arena, the King of Gladiators was about to leave.
Suddenly, a large white net appeared around it.
The King of Gladiators was startled, realizing that this was Chen Mu's interception!
It quickly "aired," splitting its body into eight pieces of air.
Chen Mu had seen this kind of trick before and had already dealt with it.
The next second, the large white net split into eight pieces, tightly wrapping each piece within it.
The eight large nets, like eight sacks, carried the packaged gladiator back towards the arena.
A dozen seconds later, Chen Mutou flew back to the eight sacks.
The strange employees on the stage all looked at Chen Mu in surprise.
Even the administrator who notified Chen Mu was extremely surprised.
The reason is simple: within ten seconds of receiving the news, Boss Chen had already captured the King of Gladiators.
What does this mean?
This shows that Mr. Chen had already anticipated this, demonstrating his foresight!
This also reflects that Chen Mu's strength is far above that of the King of Gladiators.
"Alright, you guys go ahead. Xiao Ye, lead them away in an orderly fashion. I'm going to have a chat with the King of Gladiators," Chen Mu said.
"Okay boss!"
Xiaoye accepted the order and, leading the thousands of strange creatures, began to leave the arena.
Chen Mu looked at the sacks in the sky and slowly said, "Xiao Dou, why do you want to run away?"
It's time to tell me why.
