Chapter 1652: Chapter 1,648: Odd Zhuo’s ominous premonition (1/92)
Translator: 549690339
The entrance to the underground boxing ring in the technology city slum area was at the entrance of a deep alley on the Fifth Ring Road. There was a closed manhole cover in the depths, and after opening the manhole cover was the entrance.
At the entrance of this alley was the handle of a mechanical cultivator with a gun.
These strong men blocked the entrance and covered the opening tightly, making it look like a human wall, adding a layer of mystery to this restricted area.
When Odd Zhuo and the other two arrived, they all received these people’s glances.
Odd Zhuo shrunk his neck and had a faint ominous premonition..
It wasn’t that he was afraid of these strong men with big heads and thick necks, but rather that there was a strange chill behind them.
This wasn’t the first time he had felt this chill.
It had actually faintly appeared from the moment he had bought the drink.
Until now, it had become more and more intense..
After showing the ticket to the underground, one of the burly men spoke in a deep and rough voice, without the slightest bit of emotion. “One ticket can only take two at most.”
Qin Zong was quick-witted as he fished out a stack of silver cog coins from his bosom and smiled with his pearly white teeth. “Big Brother, why don’t you give me a break? I was introduced here by a friend. I’m here to play, and I don’t know if I can still buy it.”
The Brawny Man took the stack of banknotes and took a whiff of the aroma.
This stack of silver cog coins was a hundred thousand, which was actually not a small sum for Odd Zhuo and the others, who were in dire need of funds.
But Qin Zong was unusually generous, and the corners of his lips immediately curled up. “If this big brother doesn’t mind, you can share this money with our brothers.”
The stiff-faced brawny man suddenly smiled. “You’re still a man of manners, so let’s go in.”
Then, he gave a signal with his eyes, and the rest of the burly men gave way.
“So it’s the boss here.”Qin Zong saw this scene and knew it in his heart.
The three of them had just walked into the alley through the human wall. He found that the burly man who had received the money had also followed them in, as if he wanted to say something to him. “Sir, is this your first time here?”
“Yes, it’s my first time,”Qin Zong answered truthfully.
“The betting odds for the finals are 1:6. Most people think that Jian Xiaoqiang will win. However, betting on the finals is actually not interesting.”
The burly man said in a rough voice, “If this is your first time here, I suggest that you play the plate for the hall-kicking compet.i.tion. The betting odds are 1:60. “However, the admission standard for this venue is 1 million silver cog coins. I see that Sir is so generous. Do you want to play some exciting games?”
Qin Zong’s eyes lit up when he heard this.
He had just given the Brawny man a hundred thousand tips, and he had exactly one million left on him!
Odd Zhuo and Zhou Ziyi followed behind Qin Zong, sighing endlessly in their hearts.
All these coincidences were simply natural… it was as if they had been set up..
Odd Zhuo now realized that Qin Zong might not have just been lucky.
He might even be the embodiment of luck..
Sixty times the odds! If they could win! They would get 60 million silver cog coins!
Qin Zong’s face was full of interest. “Then how do we get in?”
The Brawny man gave an ugly smile and went straight to the innermost part of the room, opening a manhole cover hidden under a blanket. “Gentlemen, let’s enter through here. This is the VIP pa.s.sageway.”
“I see. Thank you.”Qin Zong nodded.
“You’re welcome, sir. I wish you good fortune.”With that, the Brawny man watched Qin Zong and the other two enter with a smile on his face, then covered the manhole cover and the carpet again.
..
The underground boxing ring in the VIP area was really quite different from what Odd Zhuo and Qin Zong had imagined.
These people were dressed in bright and beautiful clothes, and just from their looks and appearance, they already looked like poor people.
Odd Zhuo frowned slightly. “These people are from the core area, right?”
He could probably guess something from the scene before him.
The plates for the finals were only 1:6; in the end, they were just poor people’s Plates… and this tournament was the real big game, a place where the rich and powerful looked for excitement.
At the betting counter, quite a few people were discussing the tournament.
“Sigh, what a pity for the man from before. He was already at the fourth stage, but he was beaten up and carried away by the attention of the fourth stage.”
“Who can be so ruthless? Only I, Great General Hu, can do so! In my opinion, this year’s tournament, this Hu Baoguo will definitely win.”A middle-aged man with a big belly laughed with a fierce face, he was holding a wine gla.s.s, and as he spoke, he shook the red wine in his hand.
“Don’t be happy too early, president Zhu. The match is not over yet.”A lady wearing bright red lipstick smiled suddenly.
“There are only 4 hours and 52 minutes left until the end of the bet. In less than five hours, it is impossible to challenge the champion of last year.”The middle-aged man called President Zhu let out an undisguised laughter.
He was a supporter of the champion of last year’s tournament, Hu Baoguo.
At that time last year, Hu Baoguo was selected by an “Ascender”who wanted to join the tournament from the slums.
The so-called “Ascender”was the kind of person who had acc.u.mulated a certain amount of money and wanted to leave poverty and move to the core area.
In the first two years of the tournament, there were ascenders who came to partic.i.p.ate in the tournament, but they died here.
Later, there were ascenders who thought of a way.
That was to sign a hired Thug to partic.i.p.ate in the tournament for them.
After the tournament was completed, the Ascender would get a pa.s.s, while the hired Thug would get his own money.
With this money, the hired Thug would have the capital to continue partic.i.p.ating in the tournament for the next year.
They would also be able to become arena lords for the second year.
Now that the tournament had been held for dozens of years, this was already an unwritten rule.
And the director dicas, who had been working with Liangzi Jiugong, was actually one of the “Ascenders”.
These people were chatting animatedly.
Odd Zhuo, Qin Zong and Zhou Ziyi had also heard something.
In other words, the new challengers had to first defeat the five gatekeepers selected by the dignitaries, and only after all the challengers had succeeded could they challenge the King of the tournament last year.
Most importantly, these gatekeepers all had backups, and once they were injured, they would be replaced by new gatekeepers.
In other words, no matter who came to challenge them, the first five gatekeepers would always be five people at full health.
“That doesn’t sound too easy. Do We really have to Bet?”Odd Zhuo frowned. He just felt that the rules were too strict.
There were already less than five hours left.
They had to challenge six people in a row.
Unless there was a huge difference in strength, this was an almost impossible task.
Director Zhu was also well aware of this, he smiled again. “As far as I know, the only person in the ten rings who still has the spare money to fund the compet.i.tion is that director dicas. But unfortunately, the hired thug he sent over just now has already died. “There’s less than five hours left. I don’t think he’ll be able to catch anyone on the way, right?”
After the man finished speaking, the hall immediately burst into laughter.
Qin Zong ignored him. Instead, he walked over to the betting counter and took out the storage bag. “h.e.l.lo, May I know if I can still place bets now?”
“Of course, sir.”The betting waitress revealed a professional smile.
“Please help me place a bet. Mr. Hu Baoguo, lose.”
“You want to place a bet, sir? I’ve checked your storage bag. There are one million silver cogwheel coins in it.”
After the waitress finished speaking, many gazes were focused on Qin Zong.
Qin Zong smiled. “Please put me, Soho.”
