i have a museum of curiosities

"Roar--"

The red-armored warrior seemed to be enraged, and let out a roar that didn't sound like a human voice, which made Zhang Ye tremble in fright, and hurriedly jumped back.

Only then did Zhang Ye remember that he hadn't observed the other party carefully to obtain relevant information before.

Thinking of this, Zhang also stared at the other party nervously, hoping that the information would appear soon.

— Arena Champion Sanada

——Atreya is a country of force, even in the dark and remote underground prison, all kinds of debates are popular.Among them, the underground arena where death row duels are used for entertainment is the most attractive.Until one day, three prisoners from far away countries were imprisoned here.

Zhang Ye glanced at the solid mist behind the red-armored warrior, and thought to himself: So that's it... the red-armored warrior in front of him must be one of the three people from a distant country!
Just as Zhang Ye was stunned, the red-armored warrior on the opposite side had already slashed with a knife again, but this time the slash was ruthless and fast.Before Zhang Ye could react at all, he had already been stabbed in the left shoulder!

"Dang--"

Accompanied by severe pain, the broad sword in Zhang Ye's left hand fell to the ground.Blood gushed out instantly, and he panicked.An unbearable pain came from his left shoulder, which made him subconsciously take a few steps back. Fortunately, he escaped the second slash by the red-armored warrior.
-
艸...the left hand no longer dared to use force...

Zhang also wanted to shout for mercy, but when he thought that the other party came out of the mist, he knew that the other party was [-]% irrational and only knew about killing. Begging for mercy is definitely useless.and……

I am so dumb in this world!
This is a foolish setting!

Seeing that the other party had put on an attacking posture again, Zhang Ye had no choice but to grit his teeth and raised the long sword of the Atreya soldier in his right hand.

Since... since there is no way to win...

Then I will die with you!
"call--"

The long knife in the red-armored warrior's hand slashed down with the sound of breaking the wind.

Zhang Ye gritted his teeth fiercely, roared from the bottom of his heart, stomped his right foot on the ground, and rushed out of his body like an arrow from the string - Zhang Ye aimed at the gap in the armor of the opponent's neck, and stabbed a sword without hesitation!
"laugh--"

"puff--"

Two terrifying voices sounded almost in sequence, and Zhang Ye let go of his right hand, clutching his chest and took a few steps back feebly.

Immediately afterwards, there was a muffled plop.

It was not Zhang Ye who fell, but the red armored warrior whose throat was pierced by a long sword.
-
Ha... I actually... succeeded!

Zhang Ye fell powerlessly to the ground, with blood bubbling from his shoulders and chest.

Soon, the body of the red-armored warrior was turned into nutrients by the mist that surrounded him at an unknown time, leaving only a light yellow object in place.
-
Yellow glow?This is the first time I have encountered...

Zhang Ye was taken aback, and subconsciously wanted to touch it.Unexpectedly, as soon as he stretched out his hand, the pale yellow glowing object suddenly flew into his hand.
-
Ok?
—Element block
- A special soul crystal, which can heal physical injuries after being crushed.

— It is said that in the distant ancient times, there lived a group of people who walked with death in the far north. They were not afraid of death, and they would not die.And the secret of their immortality is some kind of strange soul crystallization.

Soul... crystallization?Heal the wound?
-
Isn't this Nima an elemental bottle? !The name has a strong plastic imitation smell, okay?Even the background introduction is mixed with the sense of sight of the Northern Undead Hospital... It's just that the element block in front of you is made by pinching, not drinking... That's all!
Without even thinking about it, Zhang Ye squeezed hard with his right hand.

"Snapped--"

After the crisp sound, the "Element Block" in Zhang Ye's hand turned into a light yellow light covering his whole body, and then he felt an itchy feeling on his chest and left shoulder where he was cut by the long knife.
-
Huh?It actually works?This is indeed a fruit orange, no, an element bottle!

Zhang Ye was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and looked at his chest curiously.

The skin is smooth and even.

If it weren't for the dazzling blood soaking his shirt, Zhang would even have thought that his previous injury was a hallucination!Subconsciously, he reached out and touched his left shoulder, which was also smooth and smooth.
-
It is simply a magic medicine!
Zhang Ye sighed in admiration from the bottom of his heart, and then curled his lips with some regret—why is it a one-time-use item?The elemental product can still drink 3 sips at the beginning...

and many more!

No, wow, I have already obtained a piece of elemental fragments from the roof of Chuanhuo Sacrificial Site, why don't I have an elemental bottle with me? !And this highly imitated elemental block... is obviously not an item in the original game!
Before Zhang could figure it out, a thin figure stepped out of the mist in the distance again.

This time he was also a samurai, but he didn't have any armor on his body, just a simple gray samurai uniform, with two samurai swords pinned to his waist, one long and one short.

"Tap-"

The clogs made a crisp sound when they stepped on the stone bricks, and Zhang Ye's relaxed heartstrings tightened again.
-
Wipe... almost forgot there are two more...

Quickly getting up from the ground, Zhang Ye moved his left hand and found that the previous injury did not feel any pain at all, as if he had never been injured at all.
-
It's amazing...

Although secretly marveling in his heart, Zhang Ye had already gripped the Atreian soldier's long sword, and stared at the gray-clothed warrior without blinking.

The gray-clothed warrior walked to a position about ten steps in front of Zhang Ye and stood still, then bowed slowly.
-
Ah this...

Zhang Ye scratched his head, glanced at the broad sword not far in front of the grey-clothed warrior, pointed at it, and then gestured - I'll take back the weapon in my left hand first, shall we start?
The gray-clothed warrior straightened up slowly, completely ignoring Zhang Ye, and pulled out the warrior sword at his waist with a "clang".

Zhang Ye curled his lips, silently held his left hand under his right hand, held the sword in both hands, and thought to himself: It seems that it can't be done...

Because he forgot to observe the opponent's failure experience when he faced the red armored warrior just now, Zhang Ye stared at him with wide eyes this time without waiting for the opponent to make a move.

— Arena Champion Hirasawa

—A warrior from a distant country, good at using two swords to fight against the enemy.It is said that any opponent who underestimated him died under his sword.

Huacha... Is there any difference between whether there is such a prompt or not?No matter how you look at it, you can't beat Yazi!And... What's the use of such a short introduction besides introducing the background?
Just as Zhang Ye kept thinking about it, the grey-clothed warrior Hirasawa on the opposite side let out a low cry and rushed over with a stride.

That speed was more than a notch faster than the previous red-armored warrior.

So fast!
Zhang Ye was startled, and subconsciously wanted to take a step back.However, the gray samurai Hirasawa made the first move.

"call--"

The samurai sword in his hand slashed obliquely at an extremely strange angle, and Zhang Ye could only barely raise his long sword to try to block it.

"when--"

A knife and a sword can be separated at the touch of a knife.

Zhang also glanced at his left wrist in disbelief. There was a clear scar there, and blood slowly seeped out.
-
Isn't this fucking too fast?Can't keep up with the opponent's speed at all!
Damn it... If only I could see the opponent's movement clearly!

Just as this thought flashed across Zhang Ye's mind, a sour feeling came before his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, a scene that made Zhang feel unbelievable appeared - Hirasawa struck again, but this time he swung the samurai sword very slowly, so slow that Zhang could cut him before he cut himself!

However, when Zhang Ye tried to slash at Hirasawa's right arm from below, he realized that his movements were no faster than Hirasawa's swinging the knife, and even a bit slower!
Flower wipe!It's impossible to hit the opponent in advance with this speed!Even if it looks like slow motion, there is still a bird to use?My body can't keep up at all, let me go...

Zhang Ye gritted his teeth, forcibly raised the long sword, and slammed into the samurai sword in Pingze.

"when--"

Hirasawa's body was thin, and his strength was naturally inferior to Zhang Ye's. The samurai's sword was blocked by the long sword and bounced high.

Zhang was not much better, because he forcibly changed the trajectory of the long sword swing during the exertion, so the force used later was stronger, and it even violated the trajectory of human joint movement, so that the samurai in Pingze hit the sword smoothly. open.

Seeing that the opponent was blocked from a stagger, Zhang Ye's mouth curled up, his right foot stomped on the ground instantly, and his body rushed forward, directly hitting Hirazawa's body.

"bump--"

Hirasawa's slender body couldn't compare to Zhang Ye who was hitting with all his strength, and he was immediately knocked back two steps.Zhang also took advantage of the momentum and twisted his body directly, and the Atreian soldier's long sword in his hand easily slid across Hirazawa's neck...

"Pfft-"

Blood spurted out along Hirasawa's neck, splashing Zhang Ye's face, which startled him.
-
Cottage!
Zhang also yelled and cursed in his heart, and hurriedly took two steps back.

Hirasawa's thin body fell to the ground with a plop, and was quickly absorbed by the mist.
-
What did you drop this time?
Zhang also looked curiously at the place where Hirasawa disappeared, where two samurai swords, one long and one short, lay quietly.

Suction - samurai sword!Still two!It's really profitable!

The two samurai knives lying quietly on the ground were like peerless treasures, and Zhang couldn't take his eyes off. He completely forgot the blood splashed on his face, and he just went forward to pick it up with a smile.

"Without the soul of the samurai, you are not worthy to use the blade of the samurai!"

A cold female voice came from the mist.Just as Zhang Ye was stunned, the mist twisted for a while, and then a woman wearing a black veil and a pitch-black ninja costume suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

From the voice, she should be young.

but……

Girl, you are a bit too developed!
Zhang Ye's eyes were fixed on the other party's unreasonably exaggerated size, and he couldn't help but marvel in his heart.But when he thought about it, he felt a burst of consternation, because this girl came out of the mist!
-
Doesn't the fog make people lose their minds and become beasts that only thirst for souls and killing?
The word "fog" was still told to herself by Ivy.Up to now, everything that Zhang also saw in the underground prison of Atreia confirmed this setting, but... the appearance of the huge girl in front of him seemed to break everything.

It's just... the ninja girl in front of me, except for some places that are unreasonably large... no matter how you look at it, she is a normal human being!
-
Are you... still sane?
Zhang Ye was busy gesticulating with his hands, not knowing whether the other party could understand or not.

The ninja girl snorted coldly, then quickly raised her hand.

Zhang Ye instinctively felt a crisis from the bottom of his heart, and subconsciously rolled to the side.

"Clap clap-"

Three shurikens that shone with cold light slammed into the stone brick where Zhang Ye was standing just now, and his eyelids twitched for no reason.

Huacha... this is a stone brick!
Swallowing silently, Zhang Ye hurriedly turned his face and gestured with his hands with a smile—the girl is merciful!Isn't it bad to shout and kill when we first meet?

The ninja girl narrowed her eyes slightly, and Zhang Ye suddenly felt a chill rising from the tailbone all the way to Tianling Gai.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang also saw an extremely gorgeous scene—I don't know whether it was an illusion or reality, snowflakes appeared in front of his eyes, blurred and beautiful, and the black figure with bumps and convexes appeared beside Zhang Ye amidst the fluttering snowflakes. Forward, elegant and deadly.

At this moment, a warning sign rose in Zhang Ye's heart for no reason, and he instinctively took half a step back.

"when--"

A pitch-black short sword pierced his helmet diagonally upwards. If he hadn't taken half a step back just now, then the short sword should have pierced his throat!
"Grumble-"

The soldier's helmet on Zhang Ye's head was shot down, and he rolled on the ground several times before stopping.

Depend on!
I think you are a beauty, but you are murderous everywhere?How to say that sentence... I had my heart for Mingyue, but Mingyue wanted to kill me!
This time Zhang is also unambiguous, taking advantage of the opponent's old strength is gone, and the new strength is not born, the right foot slams on the ground, and directly rushes towards the opponent.

The ninja girl is petite, how can she stand Zhang Ye's bump?Fly out immediately.Zhang Ye instantly confirmed the flexibility of the opponent's body...

But the opponent's ability to become the last one to appear among the three champions in the arena must not be underestimated.

I saw the ninja girl swaying slightly in the air, and disappeared from Zhang Ye's eyes in an instant.This made Zhang, who was finally ready to observe the opponent intently, startled for a while.

"call out--"

There was the sound of breaking wind behind his ears, but the warning signs in his heart made Zhang also feel that the threat came from the side and rear.He didn't have time to hesitate, his body jumped forward and rolled out.

The next moment, right where he was standing just now, a ninja girl appeared out of thin air, and swung down the short sword in her hand very fiercely.

Although he escaped, the warning signs in Zhang Ye's heart did not disappear. Before he got up in time, he rolled forward again.

A strange scene appeared: at the moment Zhang Ye rolled out, another ninja girl appeared on his right side and swung a dagger at Zhang Ye's position!

After finally stopping his figure, Zhang Ye looked at the two identical ninja girls in front of him in astonishment, feeling angry and powerless in his heart.
-
Gan!No one ever told me that the third champion was a twin!

Thinking of this, Zhang Ye curled his lips depressedly, but looked straight at the ninja girl who was closer to him.

—Arena Champion Natsume Masa
——A mysterious warrior from a distant country, who is good at the way of ninja.Legend has it that the Natsume family has served the generals for generations, and each head of the family is a samurai with superb swordsmanship.However, Natsumeya defeated her brother who was the next head of the family by virtue of the swordsmanship she learned secretly.

Simply put, he is a ninja with super sword skills...

Zhang also sighed helplessly, and then turned his gaze to another ninja girl.

3 second, 5 seconds...

Ok?
No message?Are my eyes broken again?
Zhang Ye widened his eyes and looked at the other party again with some disbelief—although this behavior was very rude and caused Xia Muya to glare, but in order to find out the details of the other party, Zhang didn't care so much—but Still nothing appeared in front of Zhang Ye.

what happened?

Could it be... isn't that a real person?

Separation?
The moment the word appeared in his mind, he knew it.So isn't the shadow clone technique often appearing in "Naruto"?Looking at the introduction, Natsume Ya is a ninja, and it is reasonable to know how to clone...

Zhang Ye understood, but pretended not to know anything and stared closely at the ninja girl who seemed to be a clone, but in fact he secretly clenched the soldier's long sword in his hand.

The next moment, the ninja girl moved. She didn't disappear suddenly this time, but raised two daggers and rushed towards Zhang Ye in a fair manner.
-
two swordsIn other words... this is a nimble number!

The corner of Zhang Ye's mouth twitched slightly, busy preparing for the enemy.But he didn't realize that when the ninja girl rushed over, she kept blocking the avatar behind her with her body, and the avatar also sneaked out three new shurikens at this moment.

Just when the ninja girl was about to rush in front of Zhang Ye, she suddenly jumped high, and her whole body completed a gorgeous somersault in the air.Zhang Ye's eyes naturally followed the opponent's body.

At this moment, the shuriken in the clone's hand had arrived.

"Puff puff--"

The three voices sounded almost at the same time, and Zhang Ye watched in astonishment as his body staggered backwards, and the three shurikens on his chest pierced into the flesh!

Feeling the power of the shuriken in person, Zhang couldn't help feeling annoyed.He thought that as long as he stared at the real body, he would be done. He didn't expect that the clone is not just an illusion, but has the ability to attack and fight against the enemy!

Miscalculated!
Zhang Ye sighed, and simply lay down on the ground, letting the wound on his chest bleed.

To be honest, facing the three arena champions this time, every battle was extremely thrilling, which made him feel a sense of despair.Even though he defeated the first two arena champions with a little tricks, but facing the elusive Natsume Ya, Zhang really didn't know how to win.
-
The opponent has already suffered a dark loss from the previous strong melee attack, so he probably won't use it again.That's why she hit herself hard with a shuriken, right?

Zhang also closed his eyes somewhat self-deprecatingly.

Anyway, it's not that he hasn't died before, so why be afraid of it?It is this feeling of "died before leaving the teacher" is really uncomfortable.
-
Hehe... This is the real 'soul world'...

However, the imagined pain did not appear.Zhang also opened his eyes with some doubts.

Not far away, Natsume Ya was standing there condescendingly looking down at Zhang Ye, with unclear meaning in her eyes.
-
... What's going on with this little girl?I killed her two brothers, and she didn't kill me for revenge?

Zhang also pondered secretly in his heart.

Unexpectedly, Natsume Ya suddenly spoke.

"They're not my brothers, and I'm not a little girl."

Natsume Ya's tone was cold, and her eyes were even colder.
-
Damn... She can actually read my heart? !

Zhang Ye was horrified, and shouted in his heart with some disbelief: Beauty?Can you hear me?

"You don't need to try, I can read your heart." Xia Muya said coldly.

Zhang Ye: "..."

Maggil, don't dare to think about it...

"Are you an administrator?"

Nani?

She also knows the administrator? -
Yes... and no!

Zhang also thought for a while and said in his heart: I'm just one of...um...temporary workers?Candidate?Or... non-regular employees?

"No wonder your strength is so poor..." Xia Muya muttered in a low voice.

Zhang Ye: "..."

"Can you take me out of here?" Xia Muya had already walked to Zhang Ye's side while speaking.

Through close observation, Zhang Ye realized that his previous estimate of Natsume Ya's figure was still too conservative.But because the other party lowered his head and couldn't see his toes, he didn't notice that Zhang Ye was constantly looking at her.

Huacha... This figure is simply too foul...

——cough cough...then what, how should I take you out of here?

Seeing the other party narrowing his eyes slightly, Zhang Ye hurriedly asked in his heart.

"Aren't you curious...why am I still rational?" Natsume asked suddenly.
-
why?
Zhang Ye naturally answered the words in his heart.

"Because I am not a human being, but a spirit body." Xia Muya said: "A pure spirit body without a body will not be affected by the fog."
-
That's it!

Zhang also nodded, and continued to ask: So... so what?Or, what should I do?

"...Use your 'Guardian Eye' to sign a contract with me, so that I can leave here and go to the Graveyard of True Spirits." Xia Muya said.
-
Oh……

Um?True spirit cemetery?She just said... the cemetery of true spirits?
Zhang Ye's eyes instantly became eager.
