Chapter 426: The World Turned Upside Down, Blood Flows Like a River (Part 1)

~13 min read 2,543 words

Waro Mother Planet, the oldest and most famous Colosseum.

Everything is for the sake of the main arena inside the Waluo Arena.

At this moment, the main arena is clamorous, and the circular stands are almost filled with spectators.

Furthermore, with the help of hundreds of small, hovering, unmanned tracking cameras.

High-definition close-up shots of the main arena from different angles are being broadcast in real-time.

Even though it has not officially opened yet, the number of viewers waiting on various live streaming channels has already exceeded eight digits.

For the Waluo Civilization, which maintains a permanent population of eight billion on its mother planet, this is already a very good figure.

Behind the scenes of the main arena, the elderly manager in charge of the main arena is anxiously asking his deputy about various details.

And he emphasizes the importance of this performance again and again.

"The higher-ups attach great importance to this performance now; there must be no accidents, and we must demonstrate the invincibility and power of us Waro!"

"Please rest assured, the one performing this time is the champion of the previous competition."

"And... although for the sake of the spectacle, the number of Hamika dispatched this time has reached one hundred."

"Correspondingly, we have prepared the latest and best armor and weapons for the champion; the armor contains a hidden Exoskeleton Auxiliary Device, so those lowly natives couldn't break through the defense even if they were exhausted to death."

The deputy paused after saying this and added:

"Just in case, we have prepared a Strengthening Potion for the champion; after injection, his strength will increase by at least double in a short time."

The elderly manager sighed, rubbed his forehead, and said:

"Perhaps I am old, but I always have the illusion that something bad is about to happen weighing on my heart."

"I heard that an accident also occurred at the Spaceport?"

"Yes, I heard that too; it seems a pipeline leak caused an explosion, and the higher-ups are furious because of it; I estimate quite a few guys will be in trouble."

The deputy nodded hurriedly and spoke the news he knew.

"Have the security department cancel their leave and have everyone in position!"

"Also, ask the inspectors in charge of these few days if they have discovered any abnormalities."

The elderly manager hesitated for a moment, but still decided that making more preparations was never wrong.

And while they were discussing the details in low voices.

As time passed, the opening ceremony officially began.

As sacred and intense music sounded in the main arena.

Amidst the cheers of countless Waro spectators on site.

A Waro warrior, three meters tall, wrapped in silver-white fully enclosed armor, with patterns related to the myths of the Waluo Civilization drawn on the armor, appeared.

He stepped stylishly onto a flying vehicle shaped like a Flying Skateboard and arrived in the main arena.

Under the illumination of the spotlights, he is constantly waving his clenched long blade in response to the shouts of the audience.

"Cheer, glorious and great Waro!"

"The greatness of the Waluo Civilization."

"Let us witness it, let us realize it, let us celebrate it!"

"We are the only chosen ones under this vast starry sky!"

"We are the most supreme and noble existence of all things under this world!"

"Everything for the Waluo Civilization!"

As the music reached its peak, the broadcast around the main arena began to play the opening slogan most familiar to the Waluo Civilization.

Following that, the atmosphere of the arena also reached its zenith.

From all directions, every bit of air was filled with cheers of "Everything for the Waluo Civilization."

At this moment, the Waro spectators in the main arena had almost all turned into fanatics.

At the same time, a platform rose from the floor of the main arena.

On the platform stood one hundred Hamika dressed like primitive people.

Most of them only had a pair of fur shorts.

Their weapons were Stone Axe or Bone Club.

Although it looked like, regardless of height or quantity.

The Hamika were far more numerous than their opponent.

But all Waro spectators knew that this battle had no suspense at all.

Even the boldest bookmaker would not open a corresponding betting pool.

However, no Waro cared about the win or loss.

They only wanted to see blood flow like a river, to see how these lowly alien races, who were only not exterminated because of the benevolence of the Waluo Civilization, would die this time.

"No problem, right? Wamafa?"

Inside the Waro warrior's helmet, his agent asked as per custom.

"Rest assured, although the quantity is a bit high, I am the champion!"

"Even without this special armor, I could slowly slaughter these low-level creatures!"

"Now, the only thing I need to consider is how to show off the performance effect so that more spectators will recognize me!"

"You know, I just bought a house on the edge of the thirteenth ring, and I am short on money right now."

"This performance is very important to me; I must perform beyond my level to increase my market value!"

After this Waro warrior replied, in order to focus, he actively blocked message reception.

Then he leaped down, landing handsomely from the flying vehicle.

He raised his long blade with his right hand and drew a short blade with his left hand.

Then, he walked with long, steady strides toward the loosely organized Hamika in a leisurely manner.

Among the Hamika, the strongest one, clearly the leader, came forward to meet him.

The white fur on its body seemed to be slowly floating upward due to anger.

Its eyes, after flickering with a bloody light a few times, suddenly turned pitch black.

This Hamika leader suddenly threw away the Stone Axe in its hand, roared a few times at the Waro warrior, and then opened its arms.

The Waro warrior shuddered slightly, then immediately resumed his normal pace.

If it were any other time, he would also have discarded his weapon to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the opponent.

But not now; for this kind of large-scale event, every performance has a set time limit.

He must finish off these one hundred targets quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly!

"I don't have time to wrestle with you!"

"You... you low-level creature that should have died long ago!"

Within a few breaths, the Waro warrior had closed the hundred-meter distance to the opponent down to ten meters.

Then, it was five meters.

The experienced Waro warrior tilted his long blade, preparing for an explosive dash to slice off the opponent's head.

Swish!

Suddenly! The Waro warrior only heard a piercing sound of wind coming!

Immediately after, that Hamika had actually appeared in front of him a step earlier and fiercely swung a slap!

Slap!

The loud sound of the slap instantly echoed throughout the venue.

And through the high-quality audio equipment, it allowed all the Waro audience in the venue and those watching the live stream to hear it clearly.

Then, following the loud slap, they saw that Waro warrior who was serving as the lead actor of the opening ceremony fly into the air.

He flew out twenty or thirty meters before hitting the ground and rolling several times.

After emitting a clanging sound, the Waro warrior finally stopped with his head hanging limp in a way that slightly defied human anatomy.

"..."

"Is this... a newly added performance item?"

"Complaint! Must file a complaint! Who is the director this time? How could they arrange for a warrior representing the Waluo Civilization to be defeated by a group of lowly, inferior creatures!"

"Even if it's a show or fake, it's not allowed! This is a challenge to the glory and sanctity of the Waluo Civilization!"

After a moment of silence, the emotions of the Waro audience were immediately ignited.

The audience at the scene was even so agitated that they threw various sundries from their high vantage points toward the venue.

Under the agitation, countless audience members began to imitate, throwing whatever was at hand.

So much so that one Waro, after throwing their smart communication terminal, realized what they had done and let out an exclamation: No!

Meanwhile, behind the scenes, the manager and the assistants widened their eyes, realizing that something was wrong!

They had prepared various contingencies and even used special drugs.

Yet they never expected.

That Waro warrior, the former champion who, fully armed, shouldn't even have been crushed to death by a ten-meter-tall Waro giant beast!

Could actually, because of one slap from a Hamika!

Just... just lose his vital signs, and even his neck and bones all over his body were already broken!

"Hamika... that Hamika must have a problem!"

"Damn it! Order the security forces to move in and enter the main venue!"

Hearing this order, the assistant was stunned and hesitated for a moment.

Letting security forces armed with thermal weapons enter the performance venue—this was the first time in the history of the Waluo Civilization...

But it was only for this one second of the assistant's hesitation.

The turn of events in the main venue left him no need to consider these troubles anymore.

The Hamika that had slapped the Waro warrior away had wisps of faint but visible black Qi emerging from its entire body.

It had actually appeared in front of the Waro warrior's corpse in the blink of an eye.

After using both hands to grab the corpse wrapped in armor and lift it high up.

This Hamika, in front of its own kin, shockingly gave a fierce pull and tear!

And tore the Waro warrior into two halves in full view of everyone!

It also let the Waro's blood flow down, allowing it to bathe in the scalding blood belonging to the Waro.

"Roar!"

This Hamika threw away the useless corpse and beat its chest with both hands, emitting a roar filled with excitement, joy, and anger.

At this moment, the remaining Hamika also began to roar one by one.

Afterward, black Qi also faintly emerged from their bodies.

And following that, they leaped high one by one.

In the time it took for the Waro audience and security personnel to react, they had leaped a hundred meters high, crossed the security wall, and landed in the spectator stands.

Boom, boom, boom!

Like meteors hitting the ground, the Hamika would send a large group of Waro audience members flying the moment they landed.

Immediately, they turned into bloodthirsty butchers, using Stone Axes and Bone Clubs to smash the heads of every Waro they could see.

When their weapons broke, they would borrow from the environment, moving those alloy seats or directly using Waro audience members as weapons.

As for that Hamika leader, after taking a deep breath, it slowly bent its waist and then fiercely kicked off the ground to start running.

At at least the speed of sound, it crashed with a boom into the gate of a venue, causing that gate to collapse in an instant!

Revealing the dozens of various wild beasts kept in cages inside.

This Hamika came before a snow-white giant beast with a single sharp horn.

With just an exchange of gazes, the single-horned giant beast whimpered a few times and chose to submit.

Immediately, this Hamika dismantled the cage, released this ten-meter-long giant beast, and mounted its back.

Soon, black Qi also emerged from the body of the sharp-toothed giant beast.

Its size did not change, but its speed and strength were no longer what they had been before!

The Hamika rode the sharp-toothed giant beast and charged out, roaring continuously while becoming a ruthless ramming machine.

It rampaged everywhere in the venue, causing massive destruction in a short time!

"Quick! Quickly cut the live stream!"

"Request the security department to mobilize!"

The elderly manager retreated repeatedly while supported by his deputy, shouting aloud as he ran.

The deputy beside him also acted on the order, yet the live stream strangely did not cut off.

On the network of the Waro Mother Planet, apart from channels actively shut down by major platforms, many small and medium channels were still broadcasting the live content.

And on the large screens in some bustling commercial districts, the bloodbath at the main venue continued to be broadcast.

And the reason for this.

Naturally had to do with the Avatar of the prankster Su Ping.

Having anticipated this long ago, he had invaded several surrounding information control centers, causing those Waro staff members who had been influenced to refuse to execute orders.

It also gave the Waro people watching the spectacle time to record and save this first-hand content.

Boom, boom, boom!

Explosions rang out continuously in the main venue, and a mushroom cloud even burst through the roof, attracting many passersby to watch.

The security personnel inside the main venue also discovered for the first time that those low-level creatures could be so terrifying!

The Electric Shock Guns and Anesthetic Guns in their hands, which had always worked, failed to even hit the targets for the most part this time.

When they did hit, the effect seemed to be non-existent.

Instead, once the targets approached, they could inflict heavy losses on the security personnel in the blink of an eye.

In just over a dozen breaths of contact.

The Colosseum security team, in which high hopes had been placed, had already collapsed across the board.

This forced the elderly manager, upon receiving this news, to contact his superiors again and again to request reinforcements.

At a security department location nearest to the Colosseum.

Dozens of flying Armored Vehicles had just flown into mid-air, preparing to provide support.

Boom!

A violent explosion sound came from afar, and an even larger mushroom cloud slowly rose into the sky.

The sky and the earth also emitted a heart-palpitating low rumble because of this explosion.

"What's going on?"

"Wait, that direction... that's the Wajin Processing Plant area!"

"Somi?"

The captain of this flying Armored Vehicle squadron also received new orders at the same time.

This order left him stunned and incredulous.

"Those Somi who can only be vermin underground... are rebelling?"

"And they captured the armory in the processing plant area?"

"Damn it, I said it before, I support killing all these alien civilization races!"

"Only a dead alien civilization race is a good alien civilization race!"

This captain cursed, then led the squadron away from the direction of the Colosseum, prioritizing the rescue of the processing plant area alongside other teams.

At the same time, they also viewed the transmitted video data.

They saw the Somi, who looked like rat-men, causing this riot; although somewhat comical, they were operating light and heavy weapons inconsistent with their size, continuously capturing the factory area.

And besides these Somi holding weapons.

The Waro also quickly discovered that among the Somi, some special individuals had appeared who were extremely fast and also extremely cunning.

These individuals could often suddenly appear behind defensive forces, then destroy key nodes through assassination.

And by releasing unknown toxins and other means, they caused the defensive lines the Waro had hastily constructed to collapse as soon as they showed any effectiveness.
