Two months later, Amister Federation, Liberty City.
As one of the most prosperous cities in the Almister Federation, this is the city with the largest population in the entire Western Continent. It is also the most diverse city.
With people and immigrants from more than 70 countries, more than 500 languages are spoken here.
It has the most developed subway network in the world and provides 24-hour uninterrupted service.
As one of the economic, cultural, financial, and political centers of the entire Western Continent, this world-class city has great influence. It was once known as the center of the whole world.
But no matter how prosperous the place is, there will be dark corners.
On the outskirts of Liberty City, in a huge warehouse, countless spectators screamed excitedly. In the center of them is a cage surrounded by barbed wire. In the cage, two strong white men are fighting to the death.
Underground black boxing, where fighters from all over the world gather. Most of them participated in the fights for money. Among them, the luck is better, you can gradually become famous, and even be invited to a regular fighting event, earn enough money, and finally retire safely.
But most of the unlucky people can only disappear from the audience with all the pain and meager appearance fee.
With the screams of the surrounding audience, the battle on the field became more intense. A boxer was suddenly punched on the forehead, followed by a stormy attack. When he passed out on the ground, he had completely lost consciousness.
After the ten-second countdown, the referee raised the winner's hand. It was a white man over two meters tall, with muscles like marble and a face like a beast. There was a roaring lion tattooed on his back.
The crowd roared as the referee raised his arm to declare victory.
"The Lion King!"
"The Lion King!"
"The Lion King!"
In the lounge, the black boxer nicknamed the Lion King was untying the bandages on his hands little by little. At this moment, a black man walked into the lounge with a big laugh.
"Hey, Jason, we won again, here's your appearance fee." With that said, the black man handed Jason a wad of money.
Jason just accepted it silently without saying anything. But the black man didn't care. He was used to Jason's indifference. As long as the other party could fight and help him make money, he didn't care about the other party's personality problems.
The black man patted the muscles on Jason's back and said with a smile: "Jason, my brother, you must not have imagined what happened. I have good news for you, MMA has invited us, hahaha, I have booked for you I got off the plane tonight, so prepare yourself well. Playing a game there will cost 100,000 yuan just for the appearance fee."
While speaking, he patted the muscles on Jason's arm again, his face full of excitement.
But when Jason heard the news, he sighed and said lightly, "Sorry, I'm afraid I won't be able to participate in MMA."
"What?" The black man looked at Jason in puzzlement: "Are you kidding? That's MMA. Even if you lose, you can get 20,000 a game, my brother. Besides, you're sure to win."
Jason replied with a cold expression: "I've already booked a ticket for this weekend, and I'm going to Daxia. Today is probably my last game."
"Are you kidding me?" The black man looked at Jason incredulously, and suddenly screamed, "Damn it, you really plan to participate in that fighting competition, right?"
"The world's number one unrestricted fighting competition, I want to see it." Jason's face showed a look of longing.
The black man cursed and shouted: "Are you stupid? Do you really believe in magic and witchcraft? I heard that people in Daxia don't even have toilets. Maybe you get infected when you get off the plane." What virus died."
"It's superpowers. It's not witchcraft." Jason didn't explain too much. In this era, the people of the Western Continent, especially the three major powers, have a natural sense of superiority over the Eastern world. Whether it is official propaganda or their own impressions, the East will always be a poor and backward country.
Some time ago, the rumored superpowers and the like were also signs of their superstition and feudalism.
Looking at the black people who were still chattering and complaining, Jason shook his head, put away his backpack, and walked out of the lounge. He also didn't know what the East and Great Xia looked like. Whether superpowers exist or not, he is not sure.
But anyway, he wanted to give it a try. Just to gain more power, to gain enough power to dominate one's own destiny.
The feeling that every cell in the body is pursuing strength is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
※※※
Tianjing, the airport.
Among the crowds, a 14-year-old boy was looking around intently. Whether it was the continuous flow of people, or the majestic airport hall, he had never seen all kinds of advanced facilities that he had never seen in his hometown. passed.
Behind the boy was a middle-aged man who was thin and looked a little malnourished. The man patted the boy's head, and said happily, "How about Xilan, how about Tianjing?"
"It's much better than ours, Master. But there are so many powerful guys." The boy's eyes showed a trace of curiosity and excitement, and he kept wandering around some black and white people. Each of these guys looked very powerful, and their eyes were full of indifference and guard.
The young Xi Lan said excitedly and worriedly: "Are they all participating in the Unlimited Fighting Competition?"
"Probably not all of them." The middle-aged man: "We are the ones who came earlier. Next week will be Li Anping's enthronement ceremony. After that, the fighting competition will be two weeks later." Speaking of this, the middle-aged man sniffed Sniffing his nose, he said, "These guys have a strong smell of blood on their bodies. I'm afraid they came here for the enthronement ceremony."
Xi Lan nodded half-understanding, and suddenly asked: "Then master, can we go to watch the ceremony?"
"Of course not." A young man in a suit and leather shoes and wearing glasses ran over from behind. When he heard what Xi Lan said, he immediately refused, and then said: "Be careful, this is Daxia, don't mess around." Talking, losing the dignity of our Star."
This is Star's diplomat who accompanied Xi Lan and his master. As the southernmost small landlocked country in the Eastern Continent. Star is perhaps the poorest of the Southern Kingdoms.
And their current emperor is a person who appreciates masters very much and worships the strong. Unfortunately, the Star country is small and weak, and there are very few masters. The strongest are only two fourth-level ability users.
After he heard about the Unlimited Fighting Competition that Li Anping was going to hold this time, he insisted on holding one in his own country, and then sent the champion to participate in the big summer competition and win a good ranking.
Obviously, Xi Lan and his master were the ones who were sent out under such circumstances.
The diplomat kept nagging at them: "Remember, when you meet the person who is coming to pick you up from Daxia, don't talk, just leave it to me.
Also, don't use your abilities indiscriminately, this is Daxia, please don't cause me trouble and diplomatic disputes.
Also, be careful not to keep looking around, acting like you have never seen the world. Remember to respect the customs of other countries, respect their traditions, and not interfere in their internal affairs. These have been repeatedly emphasized before boarding the plane. "
Although Xi Lan and his master didn't refute, they looked absent-minded and didn't know how much they listened to. However, they have indeed been educated repeatedly about not being able to use abilities casually.
Ever since Li Anping disclosed the existence of people with abilities, everyone in Daxia knows that there are such things as superpowers in this world. The management of superpowers is also more stringent than before.
It can be said that all local superpowers in Daxia are strictly monitored.
But they also received more benefits after being subject to stricter controls than before.
First of all, all ability users will participate in training. Among them, the best talents will be assigned to the legendary Academy City supervised by Li Anping himself, receive the most elite education, and directly join the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow after graduation. When they are studying, they receive more than 100,000 yuan in subsidies every month .
The remaining ability users will be assigned according to their talents, aptitudes and various examinations to join the ability user schools run by some of the nine royal families. After graduation, they will either join the police, or join violent institutions such as the army. Of course, there are also those who are completely unsuitable for combat and will be selected for civilian positions.
It can be said that since last year, the local ability users in the entire Great Xia either belonged to the government or were imprisoned.
If you are a little unwilling to work for the government, sorry, the government will give you a generous subsidy and benefits, but your whole life will be under the supervision of the government, such as going abroad, going to other places, etc. It must be reported in advance.
Of course, Xilan guessed that there must be some hidden ability users in Daxia, but ability users, as long as they break through to the first energy level, they will have thoughts, unless you stay at level zero all your life, or you will be exposed things.
At this moment, an official from Daxia came to their side holding up the sign of picking up the plane. When the diplomat saw it, he immediately greeted him with a smile on his face, and happily chatted with the other party.
Although Xilan had learned a little bit of Daxia beforehand, but Star was close to Baiyue, and the official language had always been Baiyue, so she couldn't quite understand what the two said.
All I saw was the usually arrogant diplomat, but now he nodded and bowed, and after chatting for a few words, he followed behind.
He turned around and shouted, "You two, hurry up and follow."
"Remember, after checking into the hotel for a while, don't run around casually. Remember to report anything."
As for the game, he didn't mention it. The two in front of him may be top experts in Star, but when they come to a big country like Daxia, there are so many experts emerging in endlessly. He doesn't have any expectations for Xi Lan and the others to get the ranking.
Xi Lan shrugged, but didn't take it seriously. He swept the light aside again, and at some point, some staff members in blue and white uniforms appeared faintly around.
Seeing the other party's uniform, Xi Lan heard the master beside him muttering: "A man from Daxia Longque?"
