Chapter 946: Tip of the Iceberg
"Bank, why did you participate in the Void Arena?"
Su Xiao began to try to chat with the Zerg Bank.
"Bank is bored."
The Zerg Bank raised its arm blades, and the two arm blades cut in front of it, the speed so fast that afterimages appeared.
"Bank, Law Destroyer and Zerg are friends, right?"
Su Xiao continued to try.
"Law Destroyer and Zerg are not friends; it's a neutral relationship. Law Destroyer is neutral, the most terrifying absolute neutrality."
Bank's words made Su Xiao raise an eyebrow. He had defined the Shadow of the Law Destroyer as "Orderly Chaotic," which was a faction he created himself. Now it seemed that wasn't the case.
The Shadow of the Law Destroyer is absolutely neutral and will not be biased toward any side. Whoever violates the taboo, the Shadow of the Law Destroyer will temporarily become "Neutral Evil" or "Chaotic Evil."
To some extent, absolute neutrality is actually more terrifying.
"I should have quite a few enemies this time, right?"
"Bank doesn't know, but Mage Sage Sephilia came to the arena to watch the battle. She is an enemy of the Law Destroyer."
A very important piece of information: Mage Sage Sephilia.
"Are there any of my kin this time?"
Su Xiao was probing a very important thing: whether there were other Shadows of the Law Destroyer in the Void.
"Impossible. The era of Law Destroyers has passed. The only known Law Destroyer is one person; he might not even be considered a Law Destroyer anymore."
Bank also became interested. To be precise, from its birth until now, it had never seen a Shadow of the Law Destroyer. Shadows of the Law Destroyer were mostly in legendary stories.
And now, the legend appeared before its eyes. No wonder Bank was shivering before.
"I appeared before your eyes? Don't you feel strange?"
"Bank doesn't feel strange. The number of Law Destroyers will only be reduced, not extinct. This is a law in the Void. Law Destroyer is the supervisor of the balance of rules and elements. Within the elements, Law Destroyer is supreme. The Void will not allow Law Destroyer to disappear completely."
Bank was a native of the Void and knew a lot about things in the Void.
Su Xiao didn't have much time. In a few minutes at most, he had to go to the notary office of the arena to get a number plate.
"Bank is very lucky to be the first to see a Law Destroyer."
Bank's words made Su Xiao stunned. This "first" was very dangerous information.
"You seem... to know I would appear here?"
"Twenty quarters of an hour ago, the arena distributed flyers."
Bank picked up a biological sac from the side. This thing was its backpack, a space-type item.
Soon, Bank rummaged through its backpack and found a flyer. Su Xiao took the flyer, and his expression wasn't very good.
On the flyer, it was written in striking red letters: "The Law Destroyer who has disappeared for over a thousand years reappears. Will the Void face the fear of the Law Destroyer again? Everything will begin at the 5487th Void Arena."
This slogan was very eye-catching, and below the slogan was a photo of Su Xiao. In the photo, Su Xiao was smoking while standing next to a dirt pit, and there were more than a dozen corpses in the dirt pit.
Not only that, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was also in the picture. This guy was holding a shovel, and the dirt pit on the ground was dug by it.
"Woof!"
Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang barked, very excited, meaning: "Master, we are in the newspaper, and it's a Void newspaper."
However, a few seconds later, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang wilted. Its posture holding the shovel was a bit funny.
Seeing this photo, Su Xiao immediately thought that this was when he was "fishing" in the fourth game and was secretly photographed.
"Alice..."
Undoubtedly, this must be Alice's doing.
Just as Su Xiao was thinking about countermeasures, a prompt from Reincarnation Paradise appeared.
【Rest time is over. The Hunter needs to go to the notary office as soon as possible to obtain the arena number plate.】
Su Xiao got up and walked out of the room. The Zerg Bank also followed. Having such a creature that understood the Void and had no hostility nearby only had benefits and no harm.
Walking out of the lounge, what came into view was a spacious corridor. The style of the Void Arena was somewhat similar to the arena of the ancient Roman period. The whole was made of stone, rough but atmospheric, dilapidated yet magnificent.
The entire Void Arena occupied a large area. In the center was a circular arena, the ground paved with yellow sand, and around it were exaggeratedly large circular stepped spectator stands. At this time, the official arena battle hadn't started yet, but the spectator stands were already full. On the yellow sand ground, more than a dozen female warriors of the "Lalata Star" were performing an exhibition match, which was a group of cute things "fighting" each other. Looking at the fighting movements, there was a suspicion of selling sex—not exposing points or bursting clothes, but combined with the blood-stained yellow sand, it gave people a sense of "Beauty and the Beast."
The arena was divided into four areas.
Arena area, which was the sand ground and spectator stands in the center.
Player lounge area, which was the area with the smallest footprint in the arena.
Notary office, which was the area used for registration, arranging the order of arena battles, and receiving number plates.
Logistics supply area, which was an area completely blocked by Alice, and participants were prohibited from entering.
……
The location Su Xiao was heading to was the notary office. He walked in the corridor, and sunlight shone in from the windows.
Looking outside the arena, because he was at the edge of the arena, Su Xiao saw many strange shops. Magic, technology, mechanical style—all kinds of styles were countless.
In front of these shops was a stone road. Pedestrians were dressed differently. Some wore full-body armor, and some wore convenient kinetic mechas. They were races from different planets.
The level of technology on each planet was different. Not every planet was suitable for technology. Some planets had backward technology due to resources, but the native residents would use other technologies to replace technology, such as magic, biology, alien abilities, etc. Each planet had its own unique power system.
Not only that, each planet was managed by various forces, and these forces strictly prohibited cultural invasion.
For example, on a planet with backward technology but prevalent magic, if merchants in the Void wanted to sell mechas there, they could only sell a small amount, and the only role of these mechas was for collection. They needed to go through cumbersome approval and were prohibited from using mechas for fighting or labor on that planet; at most, they were for noble collection.
Technology had many benefits, but it wasn't without drawbacks. For example, on some planets where biology was prevalent, technological products were strictly prohibited because technology would, to some extent, affect the evolution of biological bodies to a stronger level.
Each planet had its own style. It might be a tribal system on the previous planet, and on the next planet, it was full of airships. This was the wonder of the Void. It was precisely this wonder that maintained the prosperity and vastness of the Void.
Seeing these pedestrians dressed differently and those strange shops, Su Xiao felt a heat burning in his heart. This was just a very small scene in the Void. These shops were built attached to the arena to satisfy the consumption of the audience.
Bank stopped near Su Xiao.
"Law Destroyer, are you from another dimension?"
Bank seemed to have discovered something.
"Perhaps."
Su Xiao didn't answer clearly. He couldn't reveal the existence of Reincarnation Paradise.
Seeing the magic of the Void, although Su Xiao yearned for it, he wasn't in a hurry. He wasn't strong enough yet, and it was too early to step into the Void rashly.
Perhaps it was Reincarnation Paradise that deliberately let Su Xiao see the wonder of the Void. In that case, he would definitely enter the Void in the future, but that would take a very, very long time, at least until he was strong enough.
Moreover, obtaining the Proof of the Strong was not only about breaking through the 80-point attribute barrier but also a certain qualification to enter the Void. Otherwise, the way to obtain the Proof of the Strong wouldn't be so special.
