Chapter 2626 - Silver Destroyer (1/2)
It took an unusual person to be able to see the twelve towers and five cities. That was especially true of the five cities. Only the people that could see them were allowed to enter.
Han Sen followed Lone Bamboo into White King City. It was different from Black King City. White King City was a giant, circular construct that sort of resembled an amphitheater in Rome.
After the two entered, Han Sen realized that it really was a large arena. Banks of seats surrounded the circular fighting pit. Currently, there wasn’t a soul other than the two of them in the entire arena. There wasn’t even a single creature.
“I thought there were xenogeneics here. Why is there nobody here?” Han Sen asked, glancing around the empty stadium. He couldn’t detect the presence of anything living.
“The creatures that were here most recently have all been killed, and new ones have not appeared yet. Wait a little bit. They will be here soon,” Lone Bamboo said. He moved to sit down on a flight of stairs.
Han Sen followed him and sat down. They waited together for something to happen.
Not much later, Han Sen heard the sound of chains being rattled. He looked toward the arena. The gate leading into the arena began to rise, clanking its way into the air.
When the gate opened, passage to and from White King City was closed off.
“Are we not allowed to leave?” Han Sen asked.
“White King City hosts deathmatches. Only when one team is destroyed will the match end. If you want to leave here, you will have no choice but to kill the xenogeneics that oppose you,” Lone Bamboo said.
“But we don’t know what creature will be coming to face us. What if it is deified?” Han Sen asked.
“That’s why I brought you with me,” Lone Bamboo said with a hearty chuckle.
“Oh, d*mn! You tricked me.” Han Sen looked at the arena’s gate, hoping that whatever creature emerged wouldn’t be deified.
The gate rose, revealing the entrance to a dark tunnel. He couldn’t see into that darkness, but he could hear the approaching footsteps.
Shortly after, something came into view.
It was a creature clad in silver armor. Its hands clutched a thin, silver sword. From the eye-slit in the creature’s helmet, a sinister red light glowed.
“It looks like our luck is not too shabby,” Lone Bamboo laughed.
“You call this ‘not too shabby’?” Han Sen could see the monster clearly. A silver substance chain glinted faintly around the armored creature. It was a deified xenogeneic.
“Primitive deified xenogeneic Silver Destroyer. Based on the reading of the God Spirit Touch, this xenogeneic has eight armor talents. If we can collect its xenogeneic egg, perhaps we can raise it to larva class,” Lone Bamboo said.
Han Sen’s smile looked a little strained. “Aren’t we gambling with our lives here? What if this xenogeneic is already at the transmutation or larva class already? We’d be dead for sure.”
“The Sky claimed the White Jade Jing a very long time ago,” Lone Bamboo said calmly. “We have conducted a great deal of research on White King City. Sky Chance’s department has calculated that around eighty percent of the xenogeneics here are King class. Ten percent of them are half-deified. Less than ten percent is deified. Plus, it is an even lower chance that you encounter a deified of a higher class. That is why I said we were so lucky. There was a very low chance of going up against a foe such as this. This is precisely what I wanted.” As Lone Bamboo spoke, the Silver Destroyer reached the center of the arena. From there, it looked in their direction.
