Chapter 394 Tears of the Phoenix
The perfectly circular Colosseum stands on the square. It consists of seven layers of arches and a high wall on the top floor. There are arches on each floor. Each arch is flanked by tall Doric pillars and a large number of reliefs...
From a distance, this magnificent building looks like an ancient Roman arena enlarged several times.
In fact, its function is the same as that of the ancient Roman arena, used for... fighting.
Personal vendettas can be fought here, and the murderer is not guilty.
Criminals who have been sentenced to death can also pray to fight other criminals here, and the winner will be given a chance to live.
Ordinary wizards can also apply to fight magical creatures. The more powerful magical creatures you kill, the more generous the rewards you will get.
Those rewards include gold, magic items, and access to the Tower of Babel to learn the magic of ancient wizards.
When Luo Fu had nothing to do, he even inquired about it. Only by killing a fire dragon could he be allowed to stay in the Tower of Babel for a day.
Considering that he seems to be living in it, I can only say that...the king can indeed do whatever he wants.
But having said that, Luofu also had some doubts in his heart. Why did Queen Gros choose the meeting place here?
Seeing that the young man was silent in thought, Livias urged:
"Your Majesty the King, the Queen is waiting for you inside."
"Then go in."
So, the carriage drove again, and what came face to face were two tall bronze wizard statues, fighting to the death. One was brandishing a long sword, and the other was holding a wand.
The moment they killed each other, the bronze weapons and bodies formed a strange arch in the air.
After passing through the arch, the carriage entered the Colosseum, and only then did Rove realize that the venue was actually filled with spectators.
As soon as they saw the carriage appear, cheers broke out and quickly spread to the entire square.
The carriage did not stop and drove up a ramp, finally reaching the top box of the Colosseum.
Queen Gros stood up and meandered over to greet her. She smiled charmingly and said, "You must be wondering why I chose to meet here, right?"
Luofu turned his head, glanced at the densely packed audience, and said:
"I was really confused at first, but when I saw them, I no longer had doubts... Did you summon everyone in Avalon?"
"That's right." Gross smiled and said, "It's just a good opportunity to gather them all here to announce that you are officially crowned king and become my husband!"
As she said that, she reached out and took Luo Fu's arm, pulling him forcefully to the railing of the box.
Gross faced the entire Colosseum auditorium, and his soft voice resounded like thunder through the sky:
"Everyone! After the death of His Majesty Kurga, we finally welcomed his successor - His Majesty Rolf Scamander!
Today, His Majesty the King is here to show His love to you, His people.
All of you...let the King hear your love! "
Tens of thousands of throats roared, and they beat their chests and shouted wildly: "Your Majesty Scamander! Your Majesty Scamander! Your Majesty Scamander!"
The sound of fanaticism swept through the Colosseum, and the whole earth trembled.
Queen Gros leaned forward and said, "Your Majesty, listen, how much they love you!"
Rolf rolled his eyes and with difficulty pulled his arms out from Queen Gros's breasts.
"I haven't agreed to be the king yet."
"Of course you agreed." Queen Gros chuckled: "Because I have prepared everything you asked for!"
Gross waved his arm, and a group of Veela immediately carried the bronze-decorated cedar box forward quickly and placed it in the center of the box.
After opening it, Rove found that one of them was filled with treasure:
Big green pearls strung into ropes, freshwater pearl necklaces, emeralds, rubies and sapphires as big as eggs, gold coins engraved with mermaid heads...
In several other boxes, there were more than a dozen eggs of magical creatures.
Luofu didn't even look at the treasures. His eyes fell on the eggs, and he carefully picked up one of them.
The temperature of the eggshell is very high, and the surface is even brighter and brighter in color, as if the pottery has been burned in a fierce fire and is surrounded and isolated by the cooled and hardened glaze.
The young man held the egg in his hands, and there was a sudden "ding" in his mind.
[An unresurrected phoenix egg was detected, triggering side mission 1:]
Hatching phoenix eggs, rewards:
【pure tears】
Your tears will have the same magical effect as Phoenix tears and can heal injuries.
Side mission 2:
Complete the 100% domestication of the Phoenix, and you will be rewarded with magic:
【Phoenix Nirvana】
After suffering fatal damage, it can be reborn as a juvenile in the fire. (Task not completed)]
Luofu glanced at the reward and felt ecstatic in his heart, but in an instant, he put away the joy in his eyes, hid the emotion, and asked with a straight face:
"Queen Gros, these things are only one-tenth of the quantity I want!"
"Except for these eggs, the remaining magical creatures are all living creatures." Queen Gros explained:
"They are too big, so of course they cannot be placed here... Don't worry, they are all in cages in the Colosseum. I will take you to pick them up after the performance!"
Luo Fu smiled and said: "Then I will accept these things first."
Without waiting for Queen Gros to speak, Shirley immediately opened the black suitcase tacitly, then waved her wand and transferred the eggs and jewelry inside.
Queen Gros laughed dumbly and said: "Then let's watch the duel first."
After she finished speaking, a wizard immediately opened the two prison doors of the Colosseum.
I saw a mammoth that had been extinct for thousands of years rushing out, with a giant riding on its back:
It has hair all over its body, and there is more hair below the waistline than on the upper body. Its head protrudes forward and is not on the same plane as its shoulders. It also has a large flat face, square teeth, and a horn-like shape between its two small eyes. The flesh folds are covered with bronze rings.
The giant also held in his hand a large uprooted tree with stone balls tied to its roots to use as a hammer.
From the cage opposite, a huge fire dragon flew out.
Amid the excited roars of all the spectators, the giant and the fire dragon fought to the death in the Colosseum!
…
…
Standing outside the cave, Dragonfire Iris looked at the wizard city in the distance.
Even though the distance was very far, it, with its very keen hearing, could still hear voices shouting "His Majesty the King" and bursts of laughter in the city.
That kind of joyful emotion made it feel extremely disgusted, angry, and even hatred, and thoughts of destruction and killing emerged in its heart.
At this time, a woman's ethereal voice sounded in the cave.
"Go, my son, kill your father... destroy his city... kill all his people!"
A trace of blood flashed in Iris's eyes. It spread its wings, brought up the strong wind in the sky, and flew towards the wizard city.
