ARIWLBBC Chapter 32

Arena PK is one of the methods commonly used by players to resolve issues, especially favored by the beastmen who advocate strength.

Gugu had previously gone to the Legion’s arena with GunGun, so he had some understanding of the process of competitive PK. With Song of Revelry rubbing his red eyes and nose, Gugu followed behind, scrolling through the store to select allergy medications.

Seeing Fange Zongji miss the public arena center, Gugu hurriedly caught up, only to see Fange Zongji turn around and enter the private arena area.

“Hmm?” Gugu stood still, looking at the public arena area, then at the private area in front of him.

“What are you looking at? Keep up.” Fange Zongji wiped his nose and turned around. “Sniff.”

“Why don’t we go to the public arena?” Gugu was puzzled. The private arena was only for invited players to watch the competition, while the public arena was open to all players.

“This is a matter between us humans. If there’s a dispute, we settle it internally and don’t involve other races’ influence.” Fange Zongji ‘s face, adorned with goth patterns, carried a hint of seriousness. “Didn’t your parents tell you? Many races covet humans. If we want to maintain our racial independence, we must resolve internal conflicts among our own people.”

Racial… independence? BoGe was a little confused at first, but when he replaced “race” with “country,” it became clearer.

Humans now were like a small country with immense wealth, and many major powers wanted to seize control of this small country. Therefore, when conflicts arose among humans, they had to be resolved internally. If it involved other major powers, their influence would infiltrate, and a slight mistake could lead to losing the right to independence and freedom.

This kind of independence must be given by humans themselves. Even the beastmen, who were very friendly to humans, couldn’t interfere in human internal affairs. Conversely, even if there were dangerous problems within the human race, they wouldn’t seek help from other races.

Upon careful thought, the only entity currently able to help humans and be accepted by them was the Alliance.

Fange Zongji  took a sip of allergy medication, opened the gate to the private arena in front of him, and as soon as BoGe entered, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

Under the azure sky was a grand-scale ancient architectural complex. The golden glazed tiles sparkled, and beside the vermilion palace walls were lush trees, with several cypresses standing side by side, dignified and solemn.

The Forbidden City! BoGe couldn’t believe what he was seeing. He never expected to see the Forbidden City here!

“Look at you, so inexperienced.” Fange Zongji arrogantly tilted his head back. “This is the scenery from a thousand years ago on our ancestral planet Earth, the buildings created by humans themselves. When humans fled Earth, they recorded the data of these buildings and recreated them in the Second World.”

A feeling of indescribable warmth surged in BoGe’s heart as he reached out, cautiously touching the gleaming white jade railing in front of him.

“We’ve restored more than just this one.” Fange Zongji lit up a control screen beside him. With his gestures, familiar buildings appeared one after another before BoGe’s eyes.

The Great Wall, the Pyramids, the Parthenon, the Eiffel Tower, Red Square in Moscow…

The iconic buildings of humanity’s past, the culmination of wisdom and sweat, passed before BoGe’s eyes one by one. For some reason, as BoGe looked on, his eyes started to well up with tears.

“You pick. Any scene you like, and I’ll give you a good fight.” Fange Zongji said with a touch of excitement.

“I want the Peak of the Forbidden City.” BoGe wiped his eyes.

The glorious era that belonged to humanity had passed, but the memories would never be erased.

“The Peak of the Forbidden City?” Fange Zongji was momentarily stunned, then suddenly became a little excited. “You also know that thousands of years ago, human masters liked to duel at the Peak of the Forbidden City?”

“On the fifteenth of August, on the night of the full moon.” BoGe struck a handsome sword-drawing pose and pulled out his staff.

“You’re a mage?” Fange Zongji admired the young man across from him and drew out a cool-looking double-edged fist blade from his waist.

Resembling a pair of scissors without a connection in the middle, Fange Zongji ‘s double-edged fist blade had a gripping area, with two short knife-like blades protruding, adorned with dazzling colors.

“Forget to tell you, my profession is an assassin, specialized in dealing with mages like you.” Fange Zongji started to boast. “See this double-edged fist blade? My sister designed the blueprint, and it was made by advanced dwarf craftsmen. It’s an S-grade weapon!”

BoGe blinked. “Is it sharp enough?”

“A few stabs from this, and you’ll be done for.” Fange Zongji raised an eyebrow.

“What about stabbing yourself?” BoGe looked curious.

“I’m not stupid. Why would I stab myself?” Fange Zongji rolled his eyes. “Let’s get started. Don’t think about any far-fetched ideas. Today, I’ll make sure your parents spank you so hard that even the Alliance can’t stop them!”

Standing below the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the two looked up at the legendary Peak of the Forbidden City, the ridge of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Fange Zongji  rubbed his chin in thought for a moment, muttering to himself, “How should I get up there?”

After much contemplation, Fange Zongji started to climb the vermilion pillar of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The surface of the pillar was smooth, and Song of Revelry struggled to climb a bit before sliding down a section, then climbed a bit more before sliding down again.

Like a snail crawling three steps forward and sliding two steps back, just like in a math problem.

Gazing at the small white wings behind his back, the S-class back accessory “Love of Time,” Bo Ge.

Flapping his small wings with effort, Bo Ge slowly lifted off from under his feet, inch by inch, flying upward.

Seeing Bo Ge take off beside him, Fange Zongji loosened his grip and slid down the pillar to the ground, his butt intimately meeting the surface, accompanied by a “thud,” as a red “-5” floated above Fange Zongji ‘s head.

“Such small wings, and yet they can fly?” Fange Zongji rubbed his butt indignantly, searching through the store and equipping himself with a jet-powered flying device on his back without bothering to read the instructions, immediately flipping the switch.

Bo Ge stood on the ridge of the Taihe Palace and suddenly heard a panicked shout. He saw Fange Zongji flying straight up into the sky with a jet-powered flying device, tumbling and spinning in circles in the high altitude.

Shielding his eyes with one hand, Bo Ge stared as Fange Zongji ‘s head bobbed up and down, then plummeted straight down.

A new hole appeared in the courtyard.

“Do you need help?” Bo Ge asked Fange Zongji , who was now bruised and swollen at the bottom.

“No need!” Fange Zongji wiped his nosebleed and took out an automatic retractable metal claw from his backpack.

Bo Ge crouched on the ridge of the Taihe Palace, watching as Fange Zongji used the claw. But halfway up, the automatic claw suddenly loosened, and there was another agonizing scream.

Bo Ge began to look at the heavy ridge of the Taihe Palace, observing several small beasts on top of it.

A long ladder was set up, and Bo Pigeon turned his head, only to see Fange Zongji climbing, but the ladder was placed too vertically. Halfway up, both the ladder and the person toppled over.

Bo Ge sat and waited, counting the crows flying across the sky.

As the sky darkened, Bo Ge supported his face with both hands, nodding off.

“Finally, I made it up!” Bo Ge was awakened by the sound and suddenly looked up, subconsciously wiping the corner of his mouth and standing up to face the person.

“Who… are you?” Bo Ge looked at the person in front of him with swollen cheeks, bruised and swollen, messy hair, and torn clothes, his eyelids twitching.

“No time for nonsense, let’s begin!” The person opposite quickly injected himself with a drug, restoring his condition. “Player unnamed, do you accept Fange Zongji ‘s challenge?”

“I was bored just now, so I changed my nickname.” Bo Pigeon showed his business card to Fange Zongji. “My nickname now is Gugu Wing.”

“You changed it so appetizingly?” Fange Zongji swallowed, “Gugu Wing, do you accept Fange Zongji ‘s challenge?”

“Accepted.” Bo Ge clicked the confirmation page that appeared in front of him.

With his butt now in eight petals, Fange Zongji was now full of grievances. He had already prepared to defeat this brat within three minutes!

LV27 versus LV10, there was basically no suspense about who would win or lose.

Bo Ge quickly aimed his wand at Fange Zongji , a green light flashed, and Fange Zongji subconsciously dodged, only to find nothing happened.

“Is that all?” Fange Zongji couldn’t help but show a mocking expression.

As soon as he finished speaking, Fange Zongji ‘s body disappeared, and there was a faint sound behind him. Bo Ge’s expression remained unchanged as he activated the Kiss of Isis.

The sharp double-blade claw stabbed towards the back of the youth. Fange Zongji hadn’t even had time to smirk when he felt something was wrong. There was no resistance at all, as if he had stabbed into thin air.

A white kite replaced the youth’s position, standing steadily on the claw. Fange Zongji was stunned, and he saw the white kite tilt its head, spread its wings. The next moment, the white kite flapped its wings, its orange bird claws continuously grabbing at Fange Zongji , its wings beating rapidly against Fange Zongji ‘s face, extremely fierce.

Fange Zongji ‘s head kept popping “-1” “-1”. Before he got dizzy from being slapped, Fange Zongji tried hard to focus on the bird’s claws. With lightning-fast reflexes, he grabbed one bird leg before the other claw could scratch him. He swung the white kite twice and then slammed it violently towards the opposite side.

The white kite adjusted its posture in the air and transformed back into a young man. Rolling twice on the glazed tiles, he dissipated the momentum. At the moment before falling off the roof, he reached out and grabbed the eaves, swaying his body a few times, leveraging his strength to effortlessly flip back onto the roof.

“Not bad.” Fange Zongji wiped his face. “You’ve got some skills.”

“Thanks.” Bo Ge saw that the Kiss of Isis still had 12 seconds cooldown.

Fange Zongji  disappeared again, and Bo Ge quickly tiptoed from the edge to the middle of the roof. Suddenly, a tile in front of him moved. Bo Ge tightly gripped his wand and closed his eyes directly.

After closing his eyes, the faint sound became clearer.

There was a kind of invisible big bug on the barren star that would simulate the surrounding colors. Bo Ge was attacked by this bug for the first time, unable to dodge in time, and had a strand of hair shaved off the top of his head, leaving Gugu Wing prematurely bald.

To avoid such tragedies, Gugu Wing made up his mind to teach this bug a lesson. After spending nearly a month in the dark room, Gugu Wing, who now sported a buzz cut, was no longer the same Gugu as before, but was now known as Nuogulugugu.

The sudden sound of blades rushing from behind had exposed Fange Zongji ‘s position. As the last second of cooldown for the Kiss of Isis ended, the double-bladed claw struck.

Fange Zongji  anticipated a successful strike, but encountered a perfectly timed sidestep. Before he could even turn his hand to counterattack, Fange Zongji caught a glimpse of a green light.

Based on past experience, this brat’s skill didn’t cause any damage. However, for some reason, Fange Zongji felt a vague sense of unease rising in his heart.

The youth didn’t turn into a white kite. Confused for half a second, Fange Zongji ‘s right hand, seemingly out of control, aimed the double-bladed claw at himself.

“Oh, damn it!”

The double-bladed claw pierced his chest, and “-1688” floated above Fange Zongji ‘s head.

The health bar dropped by a quarter all at once. The double-bladed claw quickly pulled out and struck again. Fange Zongji ‘s head kept displaying damage, and in just a few seconds, he managed to stab himself down.

Watching Fange Zongji ‘s remaining sliver of health, Bo Ge waved his wand, recalling the scene of the first time he bound the invisible big bug to a stone and plucked all the thorns from its body.

Nuogulugugu wasn’t to be trifled with.

After the last “-15” appeared above Fange Zongji ‘s head, he collapsed completely, and an image of a ghost sticking out its tongue and rolling its eyes floated above him.

Congratulations resounded throughout the arena, “[Congratulations to player ‘Gugu Wing’ for winning the PK battle!]”

“[Congratulations to the player for achieving ‘First PK Victory,’ Achievement Points: 20.]”

“[Congratulations to player ‘Gugu Wing’ for rising to fourth place on the comprehensive racial power ranking list!]”

After death in the arena, nothing was dropped, and resurrection occurred after a cooldown of ten seconds.

After the congratulations ended, Bo Ge was about to leave the roof, but unexpectedly heard applause.

The blue sky slowly opened up, and more than thirty spectators stood up from their seats and cheered for the young man.

A middle-aged woman came over to drag Fange Zongji, who couldn’t believe his defeat. “Er Gouzi, you’re finished this time. Your dad won’t be able to stop me from spanking you this time. Believe it or not, the Alliance Precious Protection Center won’t be able to save you!”

“It’s impossible, how could I lose.” Fange Zongji’s eyes lost focus. “How can I face my sister? Would she crack open my skull…”

“Are you all humans?” Bo Pigeon looked excitedly at the people on the sidelines, full of hope. “Has anyone here ever lost a child? I’m eighteen years old this year, and I haven’t seen my parents. Can you take a look at me, please?”
